I wonder sometimes if down-riggers really do have this effect on fish.

Here lately I swear they have been lol! Up till about two or three weeks ago I was nailing them but it has been hit or miss last two or three weeks! I see them on sonar too which just makes me so dang mad knowing I'm on them but them not cooperating! realmad

I got a few tricks up my sleeve but did buy a few crank baits just incase the dog days of summer call for crankbaits slamming into the floor of the lake like you're doing to entice them to bite.

I just don't get why I was doing so dang good catching 30-40 fish in a two-three hour trip and now them turning their nose at my rig on some days recently.

Love the cartoon Timmy! roflmao
